Abstract– In this paper, a detailed analysis of the zerovoltage and zero-current-switching (ZVZCS) full-bridge PWM converters is performed. The differences of the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) operation between the conventional ZVS full-bridge PWM converters and the ZVZCS full-bridge PWM converters are analyzed in depth.

Abstract – This paper comprehensively analyses the design of Space Vector PWM (SVPWM) using Simulink and presents the comparative analysis of improved quality three phase PWM-VSI for Adjustable Speed Drives (ASD’s). In SVPWM the complex reference voltage phasor is processed as a whole, therefore, interaction between three motor phases is exploited, and this strategy reduces the switching losses...

Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation is popular for variable frequency drives. The method has several advantages over carried based PWM and is computation intensive. The implementation of SVPWM for multilevel inverter requires special attention and at the same time consumes considerable resources. Due to faster processing power and reduced over all computational burden, FPGAs are being investiga...

This paper presents a Selective Harmonic Elimination-PWM technology (SHE-PWM) employing H-Bridge multilevel inverter configuration. In this method variable DC voltage is used and the lower order harmonics are eliminated, without affecting the structure of the inverter. This method gives constant switching angle, so it reduces the number of steps required for offline calculation. The proposed me...

A method of modeling PWM switches for symbolic analysis of pulse-width-modulated (PWM) dc-to-dc converters operating in the continuous conducting mode (CCM) is described for switches with both fixed and modulated duty ratio. The well-known average models of PWM switch according to Vorpérian are implemented by means of modified nodal analysis into the SNAP program to analyze transfer and immitta...

High-frequency ac link conversion offers a possible way to produce reduced-cost inverters for low-voltage dc sources such as fuel cells. The control complexity can be addressed by adapting pulse-width modulation (PWM) techniques. Here, a multi-carrier pulse-width modulation (PWM) approach is introduced as a convenient way to implement a high-frequency link inverter. The approach is a direct ext...

Zero-current (ZC) switching pulse-widthmodulated (PWM) flyback DC-DC converter is an extended version of the single switch flyback converter with an additional active circuit. The purpose of the active circuit is to turn-off the main switch with zero-current switching (ZCS) condition to reduce the turn-off switching loss. This paper presents an overview of the ZCS flyback PWM DCDC converters. T...
